Stroke Clinical Trial - Promoting Physical Activity After Stroke Via

Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

Practising physical activity after a stroke is essential for the secondary prevention of stroke. However, the major individuals after stroke are sedentary. Individuals after stroke with mild disabilities could have fewer barriers to this practice. Thus, finding ways to promote physical activity after stroke in these individuals is important for them and public health. Interventions that consider behaviour change strategies are a good way to change a habit and could improve physical activity levels. Self-management interventions have been used to promote behaviour change in the stroke population. The aim of this pilot trial will be to determine the efficacy of a self-management program to increase physical activity levels in stroke survivors with mild disability through 6 home-based sessions of self-management exercise over 3 and 6 months in a low-income country. Our secondary aims are to evaluate the effect of a self-management program on walking, exercise self-efficacy, participation, quality of life, depression and cardiovascular risks after 3 and 6 months.

Clinical Trial Description

One-quarter of stroke events in the world are recurrent. Stroke secondary prevention is essential for this population and health politics. The practice of a physical activity is a good option to reduce the chance to develop a second stroke. Self-management interventions have been used in the stroke population to increase physical activity. However, a review showed that the efficacy of this intervention to improve physical activity is inconclusive. Recently, a study of feasibility made in Brazil about the self-management approach showed positive results in this intervention to increase physical activity after stroke survivors with mild impairment. In addition, the results can be more beneficial for sedentary individuals. The aim of this study will be to test the efficacy of a home-based self-management exercise intervention to improve physical activity levels in sedentary individuals with a mild disability after stroke. The specific questions are: In sedentary individuals with a mild disability after stroke, 1. Is a home-based self-management exercise effective in improving physical activity effective at increasing the number of steps taken per day? 2. Does any improvement in physical activity carry over to improvements in cardiovascular risk, walking ability, depressive symptoms, exercise self-efficacy, social participation and quality of life? ;

Clinical trials are conducted in a series of steps, called phases - each phase is designed to answer a separate research question.

Phase 1: Researchers test a new drug or treatment in a small group of people for the first time to evaluate its safety, determine a safe dosage range, and identify side effects.
Phase 2: The drug or treatment is given to a larger group of people to see if it is effective and to further evaluate its safety.
Phase 3: The drug or treatment is given to large groups of people to confirm its effectiveness, monitor side effects, compare it to commonly used treatments, and collect information that will allow the drug or treatment to be used safely.
Phase 4: Studies are done after the drug or treatment has been marketed to gather information on the drug's effect in various populations and any side effects associated with long-term use.
